It is said that a beggar went to a rich man from Khurasan and asked for help. He heard him saying to his servant, "O Gold, say to Gem, to say to Jewel, to say to Sapphire, to say to his beggar that we do not have anything." The beggar raised his hands to sky and said, "O my Lord, say to Jibril, to say to Israfil, to say to Mikail, to say to Izrail to take the soul of this miser":)

A person came to Moulana Yusuf Binori Sahib (RA) with a large amount of money to donate toward his madrassah. Moulana Sahib declined saying that they had enough for that years budget and that there were many madrasahs that were in dire need of that money. The person insisted that he only wanted to donate here. This went on for a while till the person got tired and exclaimed "Moulana sahib you will never see someone come to you with this amount of money again!".
Moulana Sahib replied "and you will never see someone decline this amount of money again!".
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
